As your vehicle has anti-lock brakesIf you drive your vehicle with a low battery charge after the
engine has been started by using jumper cables, the engine may
misfire. This can cause the anti-lock braking system warning
light to blink on and off. This is only due to the low battery
voltage. It is not a problem with the brake system. If this hap-
pens, fully charge the battery and ensure the charging system is
operating properly.
Engine overheating
N00836500352
When the engine is overheating, the information screen in the
multi-information display will be interrupted and the engine
coolant temperature warning display will appear. Also “ ”
blink. If this happens:
1. Stop the vehicle in a safe place. Turn on the hazard warn-
ing flashers.
2. With the engine still running, carefully raise the engine
hood to vent the engine compartment.
3. Check that the cooling fan is running. If the fan is not
turning, stop the engine immediately and contact an
authorized Mitsubishi Motors dealer or a repair facility of
your choice for assistance.
4. If you see steam or spray coming from under the hood,
turn off the engine.

5. If you do not see steam or spray coming from under the
hood, leave the engine on until the bar graph for the
engine coolant temperature warning display on the multi-
information display goes down. When it is in the middle
of the normal zone, you can start driving again. If the bar
graph stays in the red zone, turn off the engine.
6. When you do not see any more steam or spray, open the
hood. Look for obvious leaks, such as a split radiator
hose. Be careful as components will be hot. Any leak
source must be repaired.
7. If there is no obvious leak source, check the coolant level
in the engine coolant reserve tank. If there is none, or if it
is too low, slowly add coolant.8. If the engine coolant reserve tank needs coolant, you will
probably also need to add coolant to the radiator. Do not
loosen or remove the radiator cap until the engine has
cooled down.
9. Start the engine, and slowly add coolant, up to the bottom
of the filler neck. Use plain water if you have to (and
replace it with the right coolant as soon as possible).
10. Replace the radiator cap and tighten it fully. Check the
engine coolant temperature display on the multi-informa-
tion display. You can start driving again when the bar
graph for the engine coolant temperature display returns
to the normal zone.
11. Have the system inspected by your authorized Mitsubishi
Motors dealer or a repair facility of your choice.

Before raising the engine hood, check to see if there
is steam or spray coming from under the hood.
Steam or spray coming from an overheated engine
could seriously scald you.
Do not open the hood until there is no steam or
spray.
WA R N I N G
!
Removing the radiator cap could scald you with
escaping hot water or steam. When checking the
radiator level, cover the cap with a cloth before try-
ing to remove it. Turn it slowly counterclockwise,
without pressing down, to the first notch. The pres-
sure in the system will then be let out. When the
pressure is COMPLETELY LET OUT, press down
and keep turning the cap counterclockwise until it
comes off.

NOTE
If this does not close the engine hood properly, drop it
again from a slightly higher position.

Do not push down strongly on the engine hood. Depend-
ing on how strongly or where you push down, you could
create a dent in the vehicle body.

If you drive with the engine hood left open, warning dis-
play is displayed on the information screen in the multi-
information display.
